After the acquisition of BP’s storage terminal in Pernis, Rotterdam, the Netherlands, in mid-July, Koole Terminals has started operating the site.
Next to the storage capacity of around 200,000 cubic metres, Koole Terminals will also handle the acquired truck loading facility and the K1 jetty for seagoing vessels. BP’s terminal is directly adjacent to one of Koole Terminals’ existing sites in Rotterdam and is connected through a pipeline with BP’s refinery in Europoort.
BP is partly leasing back the storage and truck loading rack capacity under long-term agreements.
